Some years ago I was pronounced by a pro- 24 fessor of materia medica, whose works are in general use, a neurasthenic. I had been in this condition more or less for eight years, and up to two years ago, when Christian 27 Science was first brought to my attention (thanks to Al- mighty God) through a kind friend, I was almost con- stantly taking medicine and had in all eleven physicians 30 who undoubtedly did their best, but without avail, not- 1 withstanding almost all known drugs were prescribed, and further I had tried very many patent medicines. I 3 was also put through forms of hygienic treatment and other things that offered inducements. At the time of coming into Science I was taking three times daily forty 6 minims of cod-liver oil and three of creosote, also three drops of Fowler's solution of arsenic, and on the month or so previous had bought eighteen dollars' worth of 9 patent medicine. I was restricted to the simplest means of diet, — all stews, fries, sweets, berries, and tomatoes I had not touched for two years. 12 I started to read Science and Health, and before I had half finished the book once I was eating everything that any one does. I read the book eleven times straight 15 ahead and many times skipping abo...ut. The book has done the work and I am a well man. — C. E. M., Philadelphia, Pa. Read more
